    They aren’t changing any Trumpist minds. They just aren’t. The stock market could reach zero valuation and theyd still be shilling for Trump.

      While youre right, the MAGA core is a small portion of US voters. Even if it was half the Republican voters, thats about 15% of total US voters. They are a minority that pretends to make up 90% of the population. Get the turnout up and convince those brainwashed by Fox news and you got yourself a 70-30 win.

        Not possible as long as 90% of the public just need to be told that trans people are evil. I’m sorry man. I’m glad you’re optimistic but I’m increasingly convinced this is going to end in violence.

          Oh Im absolutely convinced this is going to end in either violence (which would be the better alternative) or a dictatorship enslaving the majority of the US population for corporate profit while waging war as a side hustle. I was just commenting within the scenario of elections in 4 years, which will not happen. Fascists dont give up power for democratic reasons.
